Which Charizard cards appear in breaks, which slot they go to (Fire or Dark), and which sets have the best Charizard pulls for break buyers.
Find a Charizard Break →The Black Charizard ex SIR from Obsidian Flames is a Tera Dark type in the TCG — it goes to the Dark slot, not Fire. Research the specific card's TCG type before buying your slot.
Obsidian Flames (SV3): Buy the Dark slot for Black Charizard ex SIR ($120–250+). The Fire slot in this set is weak — the main Charizard is Dark Tera type.
Brilliant Stars (SWSH9): Buy the Fire slot for Charizard VSTAR SIR ($80–180). This is the most consistent Charizard break set — Fire is the clear S-tier slot.
Paldean Fates (SV4.5): Buy the Fire slot for Shiny Charizard ex SIR ($80–200+). Note this is the shiny version with an alternate color — different from Black Charizard.
Scarlet & Violet Base (SV1): Buy the Fire slot for Charizard ex SIR ($30–70). Solid A-tier but not the strongest Charizard break set.
The Black Charizard ex SIR from Obsidian Flames (Dark slot) peaked at ~$400 and still commands $120–250+. The Charizard VSTAR SIR from Brilliant Stars (Fire slot, $80–180) is the most expensive regularly-available Fire-slot Charizard.
